Dear Louisiana~
Hello! I am so happy to get your email! I was starting to wonder about you! I am so glad that things are going well for you, but now I can see why you haven't written. With fifty two children, free time sure doesn't come easy now, does it? And you are going to adopt ANOTHER child?? Louie, you are CRAAAAZY!! LOL Sure seems that others have been taking your lead and are "adding to their own families" as well! Good for them (and for you!!)!
Things here are (FAIRLY) good, but I am still busy with the boys, and I am still trying to find gainful employment. I was working at a Pizza Hut, but the boss was a jerk, so I walked out; and now I am unemployed again. It is very depressing. And Mother's health is worse: she's already had to go to the hospital twice, once to get fluid drained, and the other time for her breathing. It has been a very scary time, and I worry constantly about Mother! Please keep me in your prayers; we can really use them about now!
The weather is still lousy, we still get rain just about every day, and I am more than sick of it! I am ready for some SERIOUS Florida fun in the sun; I HATE hanging around the house!
Congratulations on your new book, "...And The Miracles Continue"! I am happy to know that you have done a sequel to the first book, "A Family Made out of Miracles and Rainbows"! I will have to look for it! (Or maybe you can send me a copy??? HINT, HINT, HINT...LOL) If it is as good as the first one, then I should have some very good material to read! :) It sounds like your writing career is flourishing too!
Your children from Sri Lanka sound adorable...I would love to see a picture of them, to see what they look like! I am also happy to know that you are going to add Janica Kristina (DON'T ask me to spell her name with all those Z's and S's and stuff; my spelling is NOT the best in the world!! LOL) to the family! She sounds lovely as well! I bet you are PAST excited!
Sounds like your Fourth is going to be busy...we are going to my cousin Ephedra's house for the Fourth, for a picnic; and then we are going to the park to see the fireworks and listen to some patriotic music...nothing much out of the ordinary. I hope your Fourth of July is a GREAT one, and I hope it is safe and full of firecracker-style fun! :) I am happy that your friend in California, Kendra, is coming there to Tennessee..that would be cool if she came around the Fourth of July!
Well, Louie, I must run now...Evan is crying, and I think he is saying that his brother put gum in his hair...*sigggh* with kids, life is NEVER dull! You may have fifty two kids, but I have MY hands full with just TWO!! LOL Take care, and God bless! Please keep in touch, and I shall try to do the same! Again, thanks for writing!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Florida, B.J. :)
Oooooops, Now how did I almost miss this one?????????????? LOL ('Cause AD was down, that's why.)
An excellent, if sticky, addition to the letters series--your characters will stick like glue to reader's hearts when they read about them (awwwwwwwwwwww!) LOL--well done!
